money? Did he represent him when he got his basket-sized head stuck in the pool filter?

and paid hush money for Hannity's intern/nanny/housekeeper/stripper/playboy model/whoever . Cohen just loves to help out of the kindness of his heart

and is VP of a Real Estate company, etc. need to take out a mortgage to pay off a woman (not to mention the fact that he supposedly never mentioned said NDA .OR. the payment to his "client&quot .

The mortgage story is even fishier than the rest of it, but I can't figure out why he'd said that if it wasn't true.

over the years.

"basket sized head stuck in the pool filter" OMG

That's quite a melon he's got on his shoulders.

doors, badminton nets, shopping carts, squirrel-proof feeders, etc. I bet he gets his head stuck in something other than crappy conservative politics about 3 times a day.

has to have a financial vested interest in promoting trump and spinning clinton conspiracy theories. Its possible that Cohen could be the money man...through LLC’s, just like he pays hush money.

to ask for client attorney privilege? Papers please.

Could Trump have made deal with Hannity for his on air backing and support in a quid pro quo exchange with a money payoff getting funnelled from Trump to Hannity via Cohen under a fake attorney/client relationship?

Man who lambastes people because they are liberals doesn't want his identity revealed because he would be "embarrassed"!

If Hannity's not a client, why would Cohen try to suppress his identity in court, and later admit through his lawyer in court that Hannity is a client? Is he calling Cohen a liar, a perjurer?

Ten bucks changed hands? Hannity wants to establish an attorney-client relationship with a high profile lawyer for ten bucks?

Payment in kind is going on here. Hiring a lawyer is a paid event, taxable to the lawyer as income. If not, was Hannity a charity case? Pro bono?

Lots of loose ends to this chase.

Either Michael Cohen lied or Hannity lied.

If Cohen lied, then he just dug himself that much deeper with prosecutors and the Court.

If Hannity lied, well, that's where I think it's more interesting....

Remember, Hannity works for Fox News, so if he needed legal advice, he had access to Fox News Corporate and Legal, which happily was able to cover up for O'Rielly and Ailes for their sexual harassment charges. So, if Sean was accused of such charges, then it seems he would have been better off using Fox's lawyers and/or corporate money for payoffs.

So, why would he seek the advice of a 3rd rate lawyer like Cohen? Hannity needed something 'fixed', something that could NOT be fixed by Fox Corporate. And whatever that is, well...

Welcome to DU! I'd call you comrade, but, well, you know the connotations these days.

because he's been so honest, fair, and forthcoming about everything so far.

East shit and die, Hannity.

With so few clients, you would think he would be on top of that.

Very Odd.

Here's a question. If cohen illegally recorded his clients conversations, do they become admissible or are they still covered by privilege?

How do these statements make sense together?

What a fool.

to the stand under oath!

They got all the records Hannity, what to do..oh what to do!!

when he got legal advice from Cohen. Should we assume Hannity wanted to get into the NYC real estate money laundering game, then? Cohen would know.

Really Sean?

No wonder so many people have lost respect for republicans

I want legal advice,
as long as it's free...

I think Sean’s wife did not know

And he was never his client, then he lied to a federal judge under oath. This could blow up in Cohen and hanity's faces, and really hurt his case, and put him in more legal jeopardy .

We'll get to learn all about his sexual conduct now.
